Plot levels in Aberdeen

Buying a building plot in or around Aberdeen? See how the ground falls and what constraints apply before you commit, using the Scottish Government LiDAR flown over the area and published on the Scottish Remote Sensing Portal.

What the open data says about Aberdeen

We couldn't find open LiDAR for this area in the survey index, so we can't produce a report here yet. Scotland's national LiDAR programme is still being flown and released in stages.

What a plot report shows

0.5 m contours and spot levels across your boundary from the national LiDAR ground model, with the fall from one side to the other
How much of the plot is steeper than 1 in 10 or 1 in 20, and cut and fill for a level platform
Mapped constraints from national open datasets (for example SEPA flood maps, listed buildings and designations), shown as map layers, not as a flood risk assessment or planning advice
The survey phase, year and measured accuracy, and a check for buildings mapped since the flight
DXF contours and a PDF your architect or builder can use

We can't run reports here until open LiDAR is published for this area.

Accuracy. We test Scottish LiDAR against independent survey overlaps and Ordnance Survey levelled trig pillars: heights are ±0.14 m typical on open ground (95% within ±0.28 m). Results by survey phase.
